Is Himiko a good general in Evony?
Himiko is an ok choice as an Evony Attack Sub City General. However, this is only really the case if you are coming up against Mounted Troops. due to her mounted attack debuff.
Alternatively, she can be effective as an Evony Ranged PvP General, but there are far better options here. You should avoid developing Himiko too much.
